TAKAHIROMIYASHITATheSoloist launches a new collaborative shoe with VibramFiveFingers and Suicoke with a five-toe design in two colorway options. It comes in the neutral tones of either beige or a stealthy black palette. The individual toes are separated into their own compartments and are officially available to shop now.
The capsule is made up of two unique shoes, taking on the iconic NIN-SABO silhouette by Suicoke as the base foundation. It is then imagined through the perspective of Takahiro Miyashita and his Japanese design brand. Other details include the grippy base of the Vibram MEGAGRIP sole unit underneath, the slightly perforated upper, and the monk straps that provide better-fitted adjustments for wearers through the tonal buckle enclosure.
